As of today Cloudflare requires additional security verify here.

 

I know what's happening.
The problem comes from cloudflare, not AudioZ.

AudioZ is stable, but if you are using a "strange" IP, you'll have problems. Example using bad vpn...

 

Cloudflare is irritating. Just shows you how fragile Internet really is and why decentralising it as much as we can matters.

Don't have one ISP. Have 1000s.
Don't have one DNS. Have 100s. (most people just use Google...)
Don't have one VPN. Have 100s.
Don't have one search engine. Have dozens. (most people just use Google... but we do - search and learn ;))
Don't have one OS. Have as many as you can. (Linux foreva! )
Don't have one browser. Have dozens!

Then we Internet users have peace, and they are distracted fighting each other.

p.s. I've just realised I'm practically a digital entity... like a Internet bot. And had a glass of wine too much so it brings forth my philosophical disability.

Getting a BS Cloudflare Catchpa Loop. Have to keep turning extensions for it to stop. DDOS?

 

Works in default Opera, not Firefox on Linux. Maybe cloudfare is trying to track, but can't. I temporarily unblocked cookies, site scripts, disabled extensions, cleared caches but it's stuck in a loop. Not good.

"Please unblock challenges.cloudflare.com to proceed." I did, but no cigar. Whatever.

I don't use VPN on AZ, have a "normal" IP address (don't know what an 'abnormal' IP address is?), but nevertheless have to resolve the captcha.

Cloudflare jumps in infrequently for me, too. Seems to me somebody is playing around eheh

 

That actually would mean that cloudflare is confused with its "blacklist" (proxy and vpn) and treat random user/ips as if they are/use VPNs or Proxies and need human verfication.

i dont use a VPN or Proxy what so ever.. so, yeah, cloudflare is buggy it seems. maybe not even routing traffic to correct servers. maybe part of their system is broken / odd servers which are falsely configured.

Ah. I love it. RUMORS about whats going on in the Network. Probably evil hacker (lovely). lol

 

Malfunctioning here, too, and I'm in the US. I've gotten everything from a "bad gateway" to the site completely disappearing and loading from an archived site. Right now, it's that Cloudflare screen stating that it's checking to make sure my connection is secure when I load the sister site homepage. Once it's satisfied, the homepage loads fine. Just in the last two days, though.

 

i've had cloudflare error and display a snapshot page a few times this week. it shows my connection to Cloudflare as working normally, and shows Sister site is down. In the time it takes to click refresh button in browser, it is working again. If not for this thread, I wouldn't even make mention of it.

it has also been Bad Gateway, but who knows how accurate their error page messages even are. It's probably just AA's botnet ddosing the site. (joking).

 

Same problems from Australia.
With or without VPN.
Cloudfare verification required every time.

 

Oly,I am not using a VPN. However, I keep receiving the 'secure connection' alert from Cloudflare on both my PC and my mobile.

 

Saw Olymoon comment above... this is definitely not a VPN issue. Have been experiencing same problems people mentioned above for several days now and its happening whether I'm on or off my VPN. Like others here, first guess would be a DDOS set up by Acustica. But there is a 2nd possibility I wanted to mention. Have been seeing some odd things over the past week with ads and adverts next door -- odd because these have generally been blocked by Adguard software that I have. You may want to check and see if you either have a new advertiser, or an existing advertiser, that's done something in their ad scripting that could be causing a problem that has similar characteristics to a DDOS attack.

 

It's weird, sister site is working fine on OperaGX on my PC and on my mobile phone.
But I got the cloudflare loop as described above in the Chrome browser on the same phone.
No VPN used, same Internet Connection.
Guess Cloudflare is having some decent problems with Chrome browsers atm.

Edit:
NOW it's getting really weird.
When I change into "desktop view" in both browsers on android, I get the loop.
BUT if I turn it off, BOTH browsers work.

I sent a message to Admin. Let's see...

 

How? Do you send messages to yourself? ( It's a joke, don't kill me)

 

Who is the Admin?

 

the administration of a business, organization, etc.

 

It did go down for a tiny amount of time a couple of times a day or two ago and since then I keep getting a Cloudflare security check every time I visit the site.
